I don't know it. Looks like a Charles Dickens movie or something.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Is it Miller's crossing?Or Once upon a time in America?

 ....and I'll look down and whisper  "no."

Some hints:
Director: Sergio Leone
Main roles played by Robert DeNiro & James Woods

EDIT: BringBackChrono is correct. Once Upon a Time in America, Sergio Leone's last movie before he died.



Once upon a time it is then

 ....and I'll look down and whisper  "no."

This one could be a bit tricky, for reasons known to those who watched it.

edit: Hint:-the movie is shot majorly in Black and White, switches to color at a turning point in the plot
